That's horse shit. If you're playing as bad as they were in the first half, you deserve to get booed. Any good fan base would boo the huge shit they took on the field in the first half.
No. That is bullshit. No other fanbase boo's their team in the first half, of the first quarter, of the first friggin' game. There is a reason the Philadelphia fanbase is looked at as one of the worst in the league, and that crap is a prime example.
Man, I think that's ridiculous. If you have high expectations and you go into a game against arguably the worst team in the NFL, get your ass handed to your for thirty minutes, I think you have a right to boo. This isn't like the Browns, or the Vikings - this is a team that's projected by some to make it to the Super Bowl. When your expectations are that high and you are down 17-0 with FOUR turnovers, one of which I caught was in the red zone, you have ever right to boo...
And you know what they did, came out and turned it around. You can't accept mediocrity and expect to be great.
I'm 33. I've been an Eagles fan all my life. Those projections are incredibly hopeful. We haven't improved in any way, shape or form from last season. Our #1 receiver has been injured and is getting Rey Mysterio-like in his knee being held together by bubble gum and a prayer.
I'm just a decade under you and became a fan of the Eagles after McNabb joined them (since I'm a Syracuse football fan) and stuck with them ever since. I'd like to think we have that chance, but you're right. We've got some nasty teams standing in our way if we wanna make it to the Super Bowl, we've gotta be about as perfect as possible. I'm happy to see the defense stepping up in the 2nd half along with the offensive weapons doing some damage. Matthews had that big 30 yard catch, Ertz with the TD, and Sproles doing Sproles things. Now if Shady can kick it up a notch and Foles doesn't make below average passes we should be fine.
